From SNY
” Johnson, 82, died Friday night, leaving a legacy as an accomplished major league player and manager for several teams. He was most successful as a manager with the Mets, racking up 595 wins over six-plus seasons, the most by any skipper in team history.
Above all, he’ll always be remembered most fondly in New York for winning the second and still the most recent championship in the history of the franchise.“
Davey was the first manager as a kid I could ever remember being from the NY Mets. Always a sad day when someone passes away but also a sad day when you see another piece of the memories of your childhood pass away too.
